Finished Patlabor the Mobile Police
Jul. 1st, 2025 04:32 pmfennectik posting in anime_mangaToday I finished watching Patlabor and it was a very satisfying series to say the least, even though the final episode felt more like a normal instance than having closure after all the aventures and misadventures the team went through. I do believe the episode before the last would had been better left as THE last episode since it closed so nicely in comparison, but I digress.
But for now...
Mission accomplished.

If you're reading this post, then you're probably one of my friends who I'm trying to coax to read the fic I just wrote, even though you don't know anything about Link Click. You don't have to know much! Please read my fic about gender, it's the second longest thing I've ever written and I worked so hard!! Here's a quick summary that should cover everything you need to know:

Rebuilding journal search again
Jun. 30th, 2025 03:18 pmalierak posting in dw_maintenanceWe're having to rebuild the search server again (previously, previously). It will take a few days to reindex all the content.
Meanwhile search services should be running, but probably returning no results or incomplete results for most queries.

Dirty Pair cameo in Patlabor (?)
Jun. 29th, 2025 11:24 pmfennectik posting in anime_mangaCame accross this cropped screenshot someone mentioned was from Patlabor on which two very familiar looking girls are passing by. Not sure of this was a dedicated cameo or just coincidence, but am trying to see what episode and sweies from Patlabor its from.
Its still pretty neat.
EDIT: Thanks to a reply below, I got told its most likely from episode 2 of the Patlabor OVA.

Spring anime, and into summer
Jun. 29th, 2025 08:23 ampetrea_mitchell posting in anime_manga(Crossposted from my journal.)
Apocalypse Hotel was great. Just great. Go watch it. It's definitely on my Hugo ballot next year.
Kowloon Generic Romance ended very well, even if the finale didn't quite have time to spell out every last detail of what was going on. Presumably the manga, which is ending soon, will be able to explain better. Recommended with some disclaimers: there are some very male-gaze camera angles at first but they stop after episode 2, and there is someone who initially appears to be a depressingly stereotypical queer villain but ultimately becomes three-dimensional and far more sympathetic.
Zatsu Tabi continued to be exactly what it appeared to be, a low-key story about travel and introduction to some of Japan's lesser-known tourist attractions.
Sword of the Demon Hunter is continuing into summer, but I have to say this: The choice to fridge someone in the first episode wound up feeling more and more out of place as the story went on. The subsequent story isn't grimdark at all; eventually it's about a guy hanging out in a soba shop with his friends and taking on jobs with an emphasis on how his work heals the community. Even the demons are mostly sympathetic at this point. So I'm not sure why the author chose to do that, other than he couldn't think of another way to get the protagonist out of his comortable village life and out into the world.
For next season, the shows I'm looking at fall into three categories:
Shows I am truly interested in checking out: Bullet/Bullet, Necronomico and the Cosmic Horror Show, The Earthbound Mole, Onmyo Kaiten Re: Birth Verse
Show I would be checking out if it weren't on Netflix: The Summer Hikaru Died
Shows I should be excited about on paper but am not really: Cute High Earth Defense Club Haikara!, Toilet-Bound Hanako-kun season 2 part 2, Ruri Rocks

What a lucky guy
Finished Episode 2 of the Dirty Pair series and will continue it as much as I get the time to do do so.
Speaking of Anime watching, am also resuming All Purpose Cultural Catgirl Nuku Nuku (say that ten times fast,) which I haven't got to finish it ever since I owned a VHS tape with a couple episodes long ago. That's something I need to rectify.
Also trying to finish Patlabor the Mobile Police to move on to other series like Dr. Stone and the last season of My Hero Academia. There are other series I'm eyeing but for now, I'm trying to finish what I had watched before in order to move forward.
Watching Dirty Pair
Jun. 28th, 2025 01:48 amfennectik posting in anime_manga
Up till now I've only watched the OAVs and the reboot Dirty Pair Flash which didn't attract me as much as the old timy whimy series. I never even knew a series existed until I stumbled into them on youtube. I gotta say there's a lot of what you can learn from here which potentially connects to said OAVs, and the 80s scifi feel of its phenomenal.
Dirty Pair is a gallant guilty pleasure of mine.
